Which Has Exceptionally Good Material in Its Makeup — ■ Basketball is attracting the attention it present of all the colleges and high •chools, and a successful season is an ticipated. In fact it will be the most successful year yet experienced for with the completion of the new Y. M. C. A. building one of the finest courts "in the country is made accessible. This ha* made it possible to have a two division arrangement for the Men s Southern California Amateur Basket ball league, in which educational Insti tutions play in one division and the \. M. C. A. and athletic clubs In another V One of the strongest fives bidding for honors is that of the U. S. C. law col lege team, which has made a name for ttsr-lf with the high schools in tis Wounty, and the team was defeated but *ince throughout the entire series. j .1 If tills team finally decides to enter the league it will draw with it a large number of supporters, as it has the backing of all the students at the law college. New suits have been pur chased for sever, men, who will com pare favorably with, any similar bunch of men in Southern California. Coach Earl Newmire has been fortunate In securing such fine material. Most of the players have had many years of experience in the various Los Angeles high schools. _ - - Williams, the star center, played the same position on the Whittier high school five, and during the season they captured 'ttte l pennant. Roberts, the Fi_)a.llsat_!r«n,on the team, graduated from, the San Fernando high school, where he played guard. His efforts on the courts usually bring forth many cheers. , - _ - . Lewis played with the Santa Fe team which has disbanded, and a few years ago he made a notable record in basket ball ranks. He is a speedy forward. Selph is a Los Angeles high school student and played on the team last season. His ability as captain of the football eleven this season has made him a strong, effective guard, and he can hold his own in any company. Richardson, who was one of the man agers.*- last year's club, plays a' clean, fast. game,. at forward, and has made many difficult field goals. Capt. Goode was captain of the Glen dale high school for two years, and while at . school learned the masterful game he plays. He is very popular with his mates and has a way of get ting all the work'possible out of his men. He was also captain of last year's team, and-a great deal of its success is credited to his efforts. Earl Newmire, who is coach and man ager, plays the game himself, and has made a large number of points for his team; he went with the club on a suc cessful tour to Escondido and San Diego, can play any position and is an accurate goal thrower. He has played for several years on various Southern California high school aggre gations, and is a good referee.

Willi the track season about to open, Occidental looks forward with the con fidence that her men will mare than hold their own with all competitors in the south this year. All of last year's track men are in school again this year, with the exception of Brower, Blee, Merrill and Spring, and the in coming freshman material will more than offset the loss of - these men. Brower is probably the biggest loss to the Presbyterians, for. he was one of the fastest sprinters that ever put on spikes at Occidental, but Rush, Kellogg and Bird are expected to. replace him - in great style. Occidental is particularly fortunate I in not being affected by the new rule barring preps this season, while al most all of the other colleges are hard liii by the ruling. Gordon, Lowry and Kellogg, all three of whom were on the varsity last year, and were fourth year- preps, just escaped being hit by the agreement by entering the freshman class. Although there will prol^bly not be many points won in the runs by Oc cidental, her hurdlers and field men should easily make up this deficiency. Both Thompson and Wieman are ex pected to be in good condition before the U. S. C. meet, and 'there will be a battle royal between them, and Len nox and Burek, as all of these men have records about the same, Lennox beating Thomson two years ago in the 120-yard event by about a yard, Since that time, though, Wieman ha* picked up wonderfully, and last year de feated both Spurgeon of Pomona and Comstock, formerly of U. B. C, run ning the high sticks in the fast time of sixteen seconds. . In the shot-put things look all to the good for Thompson, and although Trotter of U. S. C. has the Southern California record in the event, he did not perform against hard competition as consistently as did Thomson, with scarcely anything to force him on. Wieman and Conrad are both good for 38 feet, while Thomson's record *s 39 feet 9 inches. In the hammer throw Wieman is to be the mainstay for the Presbyterians, being able to toss the weight over 120 feet, and Conrad is close behind him with a record of 115 feet. In Pole Vault For the first time In years Occidental will be represented by a strong man in the pole vault, Clayton Cants of Pasa dena having entered in the freshman class. Carus was considered the best interscholastic pole vaulter in South ern California for years, having a rec ord of 11 feet. ..;; ', Besides Carus, Lowry and Thomas OS ANGELES IM.Ii.VLIV SUNDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 13. 1908. TEN INNINGS PLAYED BUT NO SCORE MADE — — ._. ._- ■.■..... . ._.-__--..-_ - + One of the most remarkable + <$> games of baseball ever played 'in <_• * California took place yesterday + + afternoon on the Imperial dia- * <$• mond between Calexlco and Im- * *perial teams -. of the Colorado * * Desert league.

Two thousand fans •_> + witnessed the game, which was * * one of the best ever played in * * the Imperial valley. * are both good for 10 feet 6 Inches In the vaulting event. Gordon seems to have the high jump cinched against all competition with a record of 5 feet 11 inches: Lowry is Gordon's running mate, and cleared the bar last year at 5 feet 6 inches, which should give him a place in almst all of the meets this year. For the" broad jump Thomson and Thomas will be at the takeoff, and as both of these men went over 21 feet in the conference meet last year, they should take first and second places In it. unless some new "phenom" springs up in the meantime. The mile and two-mile grinds are as yet puzzlers to Occidental, and unless a black horse springs up from the in coming freshman class Oxy will have to be content with no scores in these races, for there is no one left over from last year's team who can suc cessfully compete with such men as Mills, Jones, Scott and Lorbeer. Pat terson formerly ran the mile, but he has decided not to go out this year. Although very few . points are con ceded in the sprints, there are several good men in the school who may spring surprises later on. Kellogg arid Cap tain Rush both have fair records in the 100 and 220-yard dashes, and ln the quarter the dopesters are figuring that Bird will come into his own again and defeat Sloane of Pomona. Sloane sur prised everyone last spring when he defeated the lengthy Presbyterian in a fast lap, but when it is considered that Bird actually got out of a sick bed to run it Is no surprise to his ad mirers. After a year's rest Bonner will again be out for the half mile, but will not run the quarter along with it. Several good men are - left yet for the relay. Captain Rush, Bonner, Bird and Kellogg all having been on the team in other seasons. The first three of these men ran last year in th» con ference and succeeded in capturing the banner from Pomona, and as the lat ter has also lost two good men from its team in McKee and Rogers, the Presbyterians are not worrying much over the outcome of It. If the discus throw Is added to the list of field events, Conrad -will undoubtedly cap ture a place, for with a week's prac tice for the meet with Pasadena Y. M. C. A., he tossed the slab 110 feet last year and easily captured first place.

SAINTS' NINE TO BEGIN WORK BASEBALL PLAYERS READY FOR SEASON __—__—_.— Coach Moores Will Put Candidates Through Their Paces Five of Last Year's Team Return to School Tomorrow evening Coach Moores of St. Vincent's college will have his squad of promising youngsters out for the first baseball practice of the year. It is Moores' intention to put his men through batting practice and prelim inary field work so as to have them in condition for hard practice immediately after the holidays. From present indications, St. Vin cent's will have its 'Usual strong team in the field again this year. "With tne exception of 1906 the Saints have won the intercollegiate championship of Southern California, for seven years, and it will be with the intention of keeping up the good work that the team have returned to school, and, they will form a strong nucleus about which to build the team. Grindle, who caught a consistent game for the Saints last sea son, will again be behind the bat, with West of Pomona high school and Lee ( outs of last year's academic team as his understudies. The team will be exceptionally strong in the pitching department this year, with Buckles, who made a great repu tation for himself last year while pitch ing for Pomona high school; Kerfoot, an old man, and Foster Couts of last year's preparatory team to do the twirling. -'■ ...» Capt. Ybarrondo also will be on hand and can be depended upon in case of necessity. Ybarrondo, however, intends to give up pitching as his regular post tion and will try out for short stop, where, it Is thought, he will make good. First base will be covered by Ken nedy, formerly of Santa Clara college, and Workman. A new man will have to be developed to take the place of Second Baseman Flick, while Corbie will be at his old place at third. From the present outlook Callahan will be in left field. Cunningham in center, while one of the extra pitchers will cover right. . -'.?» .*-_-» Sullivan Wins Another Victory CHICAGO, Dec. 12.— decree of divorce for which John L.
